Battle★Star Collection

The iconic knife re-imagined. 

Working from a vision of the distinctive tool adopted by the Marines and Navy, the Kill Devil Hills K-bar turns a classic design on its edge.

Blade: Crafted of three layers of steel using the Sanmi process, the 6-inch blade showcases steel taken from the hull of the Battleship North Carolina on both outside surfaces, with a carbon core between.  The process delivers a look similar to Damascus steel but enables the Ship's steel to be on full display, highlighting its own distinguishable pattern with alloy banding.  

Handle: Sourced from the deck of the Battleship, the teak composing the 5 1/2 inch handle has been sand-blasted to bring out the grain, creating a weathered look evocative of the Ship's original period.

This artisan-crafted collectible is an opportunity to own one of a limited run of bespoke knives made of and for the Battleship North Carolina.  It offers a piece of American military history in a unique form that can be treasured and shared through the years.

Each piece is unique, one of a kind, and is heirloom quality.  This is for the 2020 Limited Edition of 30 knives and they come with a Certificate of Authenticity and Care Instructions.
